This study investigates the impact of dietary interventions on
collagen deposition within the tumor microenvironment of ovarian
cancer. Through examining the effects of flaxseed and vitamin D
supplementation, we observed significant modifications to the
extracellular matrix composition that may influence cancer
progression.
